Tips for success
- Take your time - For these witch fingers to look realistic, you should pay attention to detail and take your time. This is especially true when it comes to making the nail bed and etching out the wrinkles.
- Use sliced almonds - If you want a thinner, more witch-like finger, use a sliced almond instead of a whole one for the almond fingernail. Whole almonds work well, too; it just depends on the look you are going for.
- Try out red gel - Red decorating gel does well when decorating your witch fingers. It is easy to work with and looks super realistic.
- Create finger wrinkles - Using a small knife, carve wrinkles and knuckle lines into the fingers for a more authentic, creepy look.
